The basic way to describe socialism is a lighter form of communism. I don't agree with the authors ideas on government because it is know about eighty years after the story was written and we have gotten along just fine while other countries have relied on communism and collapsed. Sinclair’s purpose in writing The Jungle was to persuade people to join the socialist party and to adopt the view that socialism is the only way to conquer the capitalistic empires that abuse the working class. The socialist ethic is that the general public will have joint ownership of the factory. Sinclair uses many clever devices in order to get his readers to agree with this ethic.
I do understand his point that is gives people a false picture of Africa, but he may be blowing that out of proportion. An amusement park is supposed to be fun, hence the name amusement. Large animal attractions, ride down the river through the African jungle, etc, it is what brings people in.

That would be the employee. The well-organized companies effectively manage the agenda’s and prospects of its stakeholders. The stakeholders in this situation are customers and the child laborers who are working in the rug factories. Although Ikea prides itself on maximizing a dollar, I don’t think the were anticipating buying merchandise which had been manufactured by child laborers.

I experienced terrible conditions, nearly fatal accidents and constant abuse and threats from my bosses.

People claim the purpose of a corporation is to better the economy,but thats not true. If there come a time when companies need to cut back, they would start from the bottom(workers) to the top. Corporation follow a Utilitarianistic view. Which is the right thing to do even if its done from a bad motive.In the notion of consequences the Utilitarian includes all of the good and bad produced by the act, whether arising after the act has been performed or during its performance.

World Civilization 234 One of the problems capitalist modernity has in the nineteenth and twentieth century was the exploitation of the industrialization. Beginning with the mind set of the scientist... “The industrial revolution would also have been impossible without two guiding ideas of the scientist: that humans were separated from nature and that they control this separate natural world.” It was this mindset that birth overconfident capitalist. The dawn of the machine manifest and idea into reality. Harnessing the energy of the earth put forth mass productivity and economic profits. Rilley states “it was because of certain traits in private capitalism that the machine which was a neutral agent has often seemed, and in fact has some time been a malicious element in society, carless of human life, indifferent to human interest.
